Might have an idea for 51, but not sure… High School Music The Series or whatever it’s called. I remember there was a Gina, and the timing of winning an award in a child category seems to be possible :thinking:

  3. The show was originally to be called “Gold Coast” (as shown in advance TV promos), but with the characters shouting “[Show Title]!” so much in the show, it seemed a better choice for the title.

Show fifty: Jurassic World: Camp Cretaceous

  1. Madison Iseman was originally casted for the role of Brooklynn, but dropped out due to scheduling conflicts and the role eventually went to Jenna Ortega.
  2. Yasmina’s name was originally going to be Katie.
  3. The way the Scorpius rex stashes its prey in trees is similar to how leopards catch their kills.

  4. Initially, Jeff Bridges and then Nick Nolte were considered for the role of Sonny Crockett. At the time it was not seen as lucrative for movie stars to venture into television.

49 is Miami Vice, interesting how I had absolutely no idea until the 4th clue. That one made this an easy guess for me.

Yes. HEHE. See, taking a guess is really handy 'cause if you’re wrong then you could get another clue that could help.

Show fifty-two:

  1. The episodes are filmed in Queensland in the Gold Coast, Brisbane and Arundel.
  2. Filming for season 1 began in July 2017 and ended in December 2017.

Show fifty-three:

  1. The lead had $25 left in her bank account when she got the call that she had landed the part of [the title character]. She beat 2000 other actresses to the part.
  2. Near the end of the second season, the series introduced “Rover”, a small robot that became comic relief. Rover occasionally would go “Meep-meep!” to get people out of the way. The sound effect for this is the same as that used for the Road Runner in "Warner Brother"s “Looney Tunes” cartoons.

Show fifty-four:

  1. When the girls moved to Burbank the show flashed forward 2 and a half years, from Spring 1962 to Autumn 1964.
  2. Virtually all the scripts of the unsuccessful sitcom, Hey, Landlord, were eventually rewritten as scripts for this show.

It’s not, no. But sort of close-ish.

Three’s Company was actually a copy of the British series Man About the House.

  3. Penny Marshall worked the milk and Pepsi joke in based on her own life because as a child her mother would fill the same cup with milk as later with Pepsi and often wouldn’t rinse out the cup or even wait until it was empty.

Aw man I love that show …

If it’s close … Is it Robin’s Nest? The spin off show of Man About the House then?
